Explore the history of Glacier Creek Preserve on a self-guided walk
Guidepost Walk: Fifteen guideposts are scattered along the 2.4 km (1.5 mi) fire track that takes you around the Allwine Prairie Tract with an additional 5 posts located along a 1 km (0.6 mi) sidetrack (Figure 1). The fire track is the boundary between the Preserve’s different burn units, so it is regularly mowed. The twenty numbered guide posts are the product of significant time and effort of Miles Divis in completion of his Eagle Scout project. Mile’s efforts were supported by other members of his Troop 99 as well as by members of their respective families.
QR Code: The QR Code at each of the 20 guideposts connects you to the Guidepost Descriptions (this page) which provides information about the Preserve’s history as well as other biological, geological, and social features of this unique metropolitan resource.
Guidepost Descriptions can be downloaded as one complete document. Maps (Figures 1 -3) are included in the complete document or can be downloaded separately. Click on the link(s) below to download the Guidepost documents.
